However , it sadly appears that many (out there) are still yet to get the Fundamental Basic Message that the Ethical Generation of (Very) Good Evidence ultimately (and usually) costs a Substantial Amount of (Very) Good Money.

That is why we have remained relatively quiet over the Past Year (or Two) ; so that the Alternative Medicine Fraternity could duly Step Back , and (Carefully) Reflect.

Those who do not have an Accredited University Degree can do the Programme over 3 Years , while those who do have an Accredited University Degree can do it within a year.

All Interested Parties should urgently send an online CV to us via
LinkedIn ; and mark it directly for my attention.

The Standard Course Fee for the Whole Programme is equivalent to the cost of attending a Private Medical University in Nigeria for One Academic Year.

So , while such an amount will only get you One Year (out of 6 Years) in a Private Medical University ; it will get you a Full Programme for Certification as an African Traditional Medicine (ATM) Doctor , who can then go on to do Great Things with it.

The Accelerated Training Programme is currently only open to those who already have an Accredited University Degree (in any Healthcare Subject or Biological Subspecialty) ; and lasts for a Minimum Period of 12 Months.

A Minimum Period of 9 Months will be spent on Distance (Internet-Based) Learning ; while a Minimum Period of 3 Months will be spent in a Clinical Setting.

Those with Accredited Polytechnic (or College) Diplomas may also Apply too , provided that they have already acquired Lots of Clinical Experience in an Appropriate Healthcare Setting.

Since this is a Brand New Course , we furthermore undertake to Ensure that Every Successful Course Participant will be offered a Stable Job upon Graduation ; within the African Traditional Medicine (ATM) Industry.

'Student A' was a STAR CANDIDATE , in His Final Year of Medical School , when He Accidentally Enjoyed an Utterly Amazing Avalanche of Rampant Romantic Escapades , with the Secret (Long Term) Girlfriend of One of His Top Clinical Professors.

Although the (Highly Accomplished) Faculty Professor was (Happily) Married with Lovely Kids , He Had (Hitherto) Seriously Depended on the Extremely Beautiful Girl for (Emergency) Moral (and General Sexual) Support.

Since the (No-Nonsense) Professor had Formerly Served as (Honourable) Dean of the Faculty of Medicine , (Distinguished) Provost of the College of Health Sciences , (Renowned) Chief of Surgery , Revered (University) Deputy Vice Chancellor and (Hallowed) National Medical Council Board Chairman ; He was Ultimately a Very (Very) Powerful (Political) Clinical Figure (Indeed).

All of a Sudden , the (Hitherto Highly Intelligent) Male Medical Student mysteriously started Failing ALL of His Assessments plus ALL of His Clinical Attachments , and ALL of His Medical School Exams.

His Poor Parents were Totally Distraught , since they had Already Mortgaged their Family Home , simply just to Put him through Medical School , and were (previously) Hoping that he would rapidly take over the Monthly (Bank Loan) Payments , as soon as He Graduated.

. . . But Worse Things were Still (Yet) to Come . . .

A Grand Meeting of Top Medical Doctors was Hastily Convened , and (in His Notable Absence) , it was Universally Decided that He was Not Fundamentally Suitable to Ethically Graduate as a Medical Doctor.

. . . So , (Without Notice) , They (Unceremoniously) Kicked Him Out of Medical School , (in Total Disgrace) ; only few months before He was due to Formally Graduate as a Medical Doctor . . .

. . . Of Course , the (Rightfully Expensive) Top Lawyers , Senior Barristers and Eminent Solicitors then swiftly moved in (En Masse) , Loudly Quoting (Almost) Every Plausible Legal Statute on the Planet on the Student's Behalf ; but No Court (or Tribunal) could ever Overturn his Rustication . . .

A Few Years Later , while he was working as a (Part-Time) Pizza Delivery Guy , the Former Medical Student kindly stopped to Help a Tall Black Man ; whose (Outrageously Temperamental) Vintage Mercedes Car had suddenly decided to Go on Strike . . .

The (Ex) Medical Student noticed a Few Healthcare Books in the Back of the Car and they both started Eagerly Chatting about General Health Topics ; until the Vehicle Recovery Services eventually arrived to Competently Tow the Classic Merc Automobile away , for Appropriate Mechanical Repairs.

After Exchanging Contact Details , the Pizza Delivery Guy went on his Way and the Tall Black Chap got a Taxi and Headed Off to his Pre-scheduled Appointment.

Throughout their Discussion , the Former Medical Student never ever even Mentioned Medical School at all : He simply presented Himself as someone with an Insatiable Interest in Current Healthcare Issues.

Eight Months Later , I received an Utterly Disturbing Phone Call from an Excruciatingly Anxious Woman ; who was obviously at the Very End of Her (Human) Tether.

Her Only Son had just Attempted to Kill Himself , and She urgently wanted Someone to (Intensely) Talk to Him.

She claimed to have (Miraculously) found my Business Card in one of His Old Pizza (Courier) Jackets , and (After a Rather Quick Internet Search) , was Extremely Curious as to why He would Secretly have my Professional Card in His Pocket.

It Later Emerged that Her Most Precious (and Only) Son had just been Discharged from Casualty (ER) , as Case of a Patient who was 'Crying for Help'.

. . . And Cry Out To Me (For Help) , He (Most Certainly) Did.

Apparently , Over the Previous 5 Years , His (Ageing) Parents had Unsuccessfully Tried to get Him into Every Medical Shool in the Country ; as a Final Year Student.

Every Time , At the Very Last Minute , His Nemesis (The Super Professor) would Brutally Sabotage Everything , and (Decisively) Block His Efforts.

His Parents were Now Destitute (because of Him) , and that was why He sometimes (Half-Heartedly) wanted to End It All.

When He had Finished , I Reciprocally Told Him about My Very Own Life Story.

At the End of the Talk , He Firmly Realized that there was Still a Glimmer of Hope , Somewhere Out There ; for Him.

I Constantly Mentored Him , over the Phone , for the Next 3 Months.

After That , I frequently sent Him a Few (Current) Medical Books Every (Blessed) Week , to gradually get Him back on Track.

When the Time was (Absolutely) Right , I Comprehensively Assessed His (Professional) Clinical Skills ; and then (Carefully) Gave Him (and His Parents) Some Very Bad News (Indeed).

The Bad News was that I , the Amazing Professor Dr Joseph Chikelue Obi , had Woefully (and Spectacularly) Failed to find any Accredited Medical School on Earth which was Unreservedly Prepared to Accept Him Back into their Final (Graduating) Year.

BUT I DID , HOWEVER , (PATHETICALLY) MANAGE TO CRAFTILY CALL IN A FEW FAVOURS , from Some (Long Lost) Friends of Mine ; who were Perfectly (and Gallantly) Willing to IMMEDIATELY Accept Him directly into their Penultimate Clinical Year (Instead).

. . . Alas , Sadly , The Pretty Young Girl , Above , Eventually Dumped the Top Medical Professor , plus All the Rest of Those who somehow happened to (Luckily) Find Themselves on Her Very Long List of (Utterly Besotted) Medical School Boyfriends.

She is now the Permanent 'Side-Piece' of a Very , Very , Wealthy Russian Oligarch . . .

. . . Unsurprisingly , The Emeritus Super Professor has Still Not Forgiven Me to Date ; and (Most Probably) Never (Ever) Will . . .

Ever the Controversial (Political) Maverick , Prof Obi Sensationally Shocked the Online Clinical Fraternity by Quietly Publishing this Highly Explosive (November 2016) Alternative Medicine Definition on the (Highly Influential) LinkedIn Professional Social Network , rather than on his Public Google Plus Profile (which would have Globally Generated FAR Much More Publicity).

Sources Close to the (EMINENT) Top Black Politician are (currently) not commenting as to whether his Latest Move is to be seen as a Major (Retaliatory) Snub to the Whole Google Establishment ; after it Shockingly Emerged that (Certain) Google Staff in London (UK) had Secretly been induced to (Politically) Work Against Him.

A former president of the Irish Hospital Consultants’ Association has been found guilty of “poor professional performance” by a fitness to practice inquiry of the Medical Council.

Dr Colm Quigley is the clinical director at Wexford General Hospital and is himself a former president of the Medical Council.

The findings will now be forwarded to the board of the Medical Council who will deliberate and decide on what sanctions – if any – will be imposed on Dr Quigley.

The finding of poor professional performance of a doctor is distinct from from from the more serious accusation of “professional misconduct”, which was not levelled against him.

The case relates to a patient – known only as Patient X – who was referred by his GP to Dr Quigley’s private clinic at the Ely Hospital at Ferrybank, Co Wexford on August 27, 2009.

Patient X was said to have been suffering from a number of complaints including low sodium in the blood.

After the consultation, Dr Quigley wrote to Patient X’s GP and said he would be carrying out a series of tests on Patient X. These tests were never carried out.
Patient X died of inoperable lung cancer on April 16th, 2011. There is no allegation that Dr Quigley caused deterioration in the patient’s health or in any way contributed to his death.

Dr Quigley told the inquiry he believed subsequent examination of medical records had shown Patient X had not contracted the cancer that killed him in 2010 – and so the missing tests in 2009 could not have revealed it.

However, the committee found Dr Quigley was guilty of “poor professional performance” in failing to arrange the tests, failing to recognise the tests had not been carried out, and failing to have “any adequate system” in place for tracking or monitoring tests.

He was also guilty of failing to “respond adequately” to letters and phone calls over a number of months by Patient X, his wife, and his GP enquiring as to why the tests had not yet been carried out.

It was proven beyond reasonable doubt that Dr Quigley, in or after the first consulation in August, failed to “ensure” the tests were carried out – but this was not deemed to constitute “poor professional performance”.

Dr Quigley was found not guilty of allegations that at consultations in August and December 2009, he failed to take “any adequate history” or undertake “any adequate examination” of Patient X.

He was also found not guilty of an allegation that he “failed to maintain adequate records in respect of the care afforded” to Patient X.

During closing statements, Neasa Bird, for the Medical Council, said Dr Quigley had been unable to provide an explanation or excuse as to why the series of tests were not carried out.

The crux of the prosecution case hung on the argument that Dr Quigley had not been responsible for one mistake, but “a series of errors over a long period of time”. She said this amounted to a case of poor professional performance.

In his closing statement, Paul Anthony McDermott, counsel for Dr Quigley, said his client’s position was the same as it had been from the outset – that “a mistake” had occurred.

He said Dr Quigley had an otherwise “unblemished” record.

“What this case does establish is that paper-based systems can go wrong. Ireland is moving towards computer-based systems which should ensure that something like this never happens again.”

He said it was “ironic” that Dr Quigley was the subject of an inquiry having “spent much of his time protecting patients in the role as clinical director (at Wexford General Hospital)”.

Concerning allegations from the Medical Council that Dr Quigley had implicated himself with an admission that his handling of Patient X had “fallen below (his) standards”, Mr McDermott said this was “unfair”.

“His standards are unusually high and he has been a perfectionist. It’s unfair to turn that approach on him and use his own evidence to condemn him. He said ‘I wanted to do better’ and that is being used against him.”

The committee heard Dr Quigley has made “significant changes” to his practice, including the reduction of the number of patients he sees. “He is making changes to make sure this never happens again,” added Mr McDermott.

Most of the Racist Police Officers , who were gleefully sniffing around , have now been Disciplined for Corruption and other Types of Misconduct ; while one of them is even said to be working as a Kitchen Porter (Dish-Washer) in a Dingy British Restaurant. Another One is said to have a Terrifying Substance Addiction.

Finally , the (Clinically Unqualified) Quackometer Blog Owner Andy Lewis , is (presently & rightfully) being shunned by Growing Numbers of Previous Major Donors and Supporters ; most of who (wisely) do not want anything whatsoever to do with his (Nefarious) Racist (& Xenophobic) Activities.
